Borosilicate Conical Flask

Product Code : SCL-LG-12002

Borosilicate Conical Flask (SKU SCL-LG-12002), often called an Erlenmeyer flask, has a broad flat base that tapers to a narrow neck. The shape lets students swirl liquids with little splashing, which is why it is the standard receiving flask in titrations and a common mixing vessel in school and college chemistry. Science Lab Supplies ships it from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, institutes, tender contractors and distributors.

Specifications

This conical flask is made of clear borosilicate glass, with sloping sides, a narrow neck and a flat base that stands securely on a level bench. The listing does not give a capacity, dimensions or temperature limit, so the nominal size you need is confirmed when the quotation is prepared.

Applications and Experiments for the Borosilicate Conical Flask

In acid-base and redox titrations the conical flask holds the measured sample while titrant runs in from the burette; the student swirls it continuously and watches for the colour change of the indicator. The same flask is used for mixing solutions, dissolving solids and simple reactions where splashing must be kept low.

• Class 11–12 chemistry (CBSE/NCERT): volumetric analysis with oxalic acid, Mohr's salt and potassium permanganate titrations.
• Class 9–10 science: mixing and reacting solutions in chemical-change practicals.
• B.Sc. chemistry practicals: acid-base, redox and complexometric titrations.
• Water, food and quality-control labs: routine titrations and solution preparation.

Standard Scope of Supply

Each unit is one borosilicate conical flask. It is supplied without stopper, cap, stand, clamp, heating apparatus or chemicals. Laboratories setting up titration benches often add burettes and clamps, and these can be written into the same enquiry as separate items.

Packing, MOQ and Lead Time

Order quantities are flexible: a college can ask for a few replacement flasks, and a new school chemistry lab can request enough for every titration place. The quotation gives packing, delivery time and price for your chosen capacities, and other glassware from the same list can be priced with it.

Because Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code, it can ship to buyers in Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. Send your size and quantity list via the contact page, build it in the enquiry cart, or read the lab tender page if you are buying against a tender.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a conical flask used for titrations?
Its sloping sides and narrow neck let the liquid be swirled vigorously without splashing out, so the titrant mixes evenly and the end point can be seen clearly against a white tile.

How is a conical flask different from a beaker?
A beaker has straight sides and a wide mouth for easy pouring and access. The conical flask narrows towards the neck, which makes swirling safer and reduces spills.

Can I measure volumes with it?
Not accurately. A conical flask is a mixing and holding vessel; use a pipette, burette or volumetric flask when the volume must be precise.

Who supplies the Borosilicate Conical Flask?
Science Lab Supplies, from Ambala in Haryana, India. It quotes schools, colleges, training institutes and distributors directly, for a handful of flasks or complete glassware lists.

Related Titration Glassware

A titration bench needs more than the receiving flask. These four items from the Lab Glassware range cover delivering the titrant, holding and mixing solutions, iodine titrations and a free-standing round-bodied alternative, and they can all be quoted together with the conical flasks.

• Borosilicate Glass Burette 50ml — delivers the titrant into the flask.
• Iodine Flask — used for iodometric titrations.
• Borosilicate Beaker — for preparing and holding solutions.
• Borosilicate Flat Bottom Flask — round-bodied flask that also stands on its own.
